“He said, ‘We’re bringing you on our plane at governmental expense and you will live there on American expense. For what do you need money?’” Sergei recalled. “And they explained to him that it is a capitalist country and if you want to go to the toilet, you have to pay, you cannot just piss. So he agreed that they would give us some money. I think it was $30 for the whole trip.”
― Peter Carlson, K Blows Top: A Cold War Comic Interlude Starring Nikita Khrushchev, America's Most Unlikely Tourist
